Day 14 - Shechina Sh’b Gevurah: Majesty within Strength

Today is the fourteenth day of the Omer.

We are all channels for the holy, here to be of service.

Our lives are our offerings.

May we serve with humility and strength.

Practice for today:

We ask ourselves,

In what ways do I need to be more rigorous with myself?

In what ways do I need to be more gentle?

What are the practices and rituals that guide and sustain me?

From the mystery, the Holy One gazes upon us to see if there is someone who has the good sense to seek God in all. (Psalm 14:2)
